A member asked:
Tests only show hypothyroidism. no pcos. ive gained weight, ive had hair loss, irregular/absent periods, and lots of hair on my face and neck. i know most of these also happen with hypothyroidism, but not excess hair. what else could cause it?

It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. It would be prudent to see an endocrinologist as your symptoms suggest more than thyroid deficiency. Wish you good health!
